i found a little girl's curious george t-shirt and thought it was adorable, but I wanted it to look a little more intresting, and wanted it to show a little less stomach. I came up with this:

I cut it out into a basic rectangle shap and hemmed it on all sides. I then added some of those backpack straps. (three on the back and one on the top.) then, (because i love how flattering it is for small-chested and big-chested girls alike) I added some ruching detail with cute red ribbon.

sorry for the small picture, but I took an old orange old navy tanktop from jr. high and added a felt record, then did a little bit of ruching with ribbon in the middle to add a little bit more of a flattering fit. it was super easy, and i loved the results.

It's my friend Ross' birthday tomorrow, but I have a week or so to make something since we don't live too close anymore. He loves music, and I thought about making something that tied into that. any ideas? He is one of my best guyfriends and we have a good but totally platonic relationship.
